The Hanukkah story tells how the Maccabees fought for three long years against the ancient Greeks for religious freedom and the ability to practice Judaism openly. Today, we can learn from the Maccabees about determination and perseverance, as we too fight for what is right and just. Hashtag us on Facebook so we can see your designs #valleyjcc

Driedel game – play a fun game of dreidel
Each player puts one item from his pile of tokens into the center, making a ‘pot’.
Players take turns spinning the dreidel. …
At the end of a player’s turn, every player places another token into the pot.
When the player runs out of pieces, they are either out of the game or can ask another player for a loan.
Land on “nun” (נ) and nothing happens.
Land on “gimmel” (ג) and you get to take the whole pot.
Land on “hay” (ה) and you take half of the pot.
Land on “shin” (ש) and you must give a predetermined amount back into the pot.
